One Killer, the Aventador

In the history of Lamborghini, never make one car like this... like the aventador. The aventador like all the good supercars has a V12 engine and a lot of new components that are called the 6 element. Let see the main characteristics of the Aventador.

- The Lamborghini Aventador LP 700-4 is a two-door, two-seater sports car publicly unveiled by Lamborghini at the Geneva Motor Show on 28 February 2011, five months after its initial unveiling in Sant'Agata Bolognese. Internally codenamed LB834,the Aventador was designed to replace the ten-year-old Murciélago as the new flagship model in the Lamborghini lineup starting in 2011. Soon after the Aventador unveiling, Lamborghini announced that it had already sold over 12 months of the production vehicles, with deliveries starting in the second half of 2011. Thesuggested retail price is €255,000 in Europe, £201,900 in the UK and $379,700 in the U.S.

- The Aventador LP 700-4 uses Lamborghini's new 700 PS (515 kW; 690 bhp) and 425.77 bhp (317 kW; 432 PS) per tonne with the 6.5 liter 60° V12 engine. Known internally as theL539, the new engine is Lamborghini's fourth in-house engine and second V12. It is the first all-new V12 since the 3.5 litre powerplant found in the Miura 

Aventador J

-Six months after unveiling the Aventador, plans for a roadster version were leaked by the U.S. EPA after it included the model on a data sheet on its website. Lamborghini officially unveiled the Aventador J to the world at the 2012 Geneva Motor Show. The roofless and windowless concept car uses the same V12 engine as the standard Aventador, producing 700 hp through a lightweight seven-speed automated transmission. The car has also been stripped of its air conditioning and radio units to save further weight, allowing it to weigh in at only 3,472 pounds (1,575 kg). The car at the Geneva show is the only copy to be produced, and was sold for $2.8 million.

The Netherlands Luxury

- ! OkToday I´m going to talk oabut Netherlands. Holand is a countrie that hasn´t contibute to much to the vehicle market, it only has 1 car company, Spyker. Today we tal about the C8 Spyder.

The C8 Spyder is the original base model with an Audi 4.2 litre V8 engine giving the car 400 PS (290 kW) and a top speed of 300 km/h (186 mph). The C8 spyder T has a more powerful Audi 4.2 litre V8 twin turbo with 525 PS (386 kW) giving it a top speed of 320 km/h (199 mph). The C8 Laviolette has the 400 PS (290 kW) Audi engine but unlike the spyder models that come with either a soft or a hard top, the Laviolette has a glass canopy. The C8 Double 12R is a version made specifically for the 24 hours of Le Mans also using the Audi V8 engine with 480 PS (353 kW) and the C8 Double 12S is the street version of this car which has the same glass canopy of the Laviolette and optionally has a 620 PS (460 kW) engine instead of the 400 PS (290 kW) engine from the C8 spyder, giving it a top speed between 301 km/h (187 mph) and 345 km/h (214 mph) depending on the engine. Both Double 12 versions have a modified C8 spyder frame with a longer wheelbase and a bigger fuel tank, 100 litres instead of 75.

The GT2R is the latest racing model of the car and has 450 PS (331 kW) and an open top with a metal rollcage. The Spyker C12 LaTurbie is the most recent road model and also has a long wheelbase but comes with a new 12 cylinder 6.0 litre Audi W12 engineproducing 500 PS (370 kW). Despite the changed designation, C12 instead of C8, the car's appearance is still similar to that of the C8 models. C12 refers to the twelve cylinders, while the C8 has only eight.

A vehicle with Spanish blood

- Spain has never made much noise in automotive history. Today Spain has some of the legendary SEAT brand in Spain. Throughout the twentieth century Spanish automobile industry contributed much to the world of the engine, in 1954 an engineer invented barcelones Pegaso Z-102. The Z-102 became the world's fastest car in 1955 with a speed of 268km/h- Wifredo Ricart returned to his native Barcelona after World War II, flying from Italy, because they destroyed their factories and businesses out of money. The Z-102 was conceived in a time of economic isolation in Spain. By then ENASA company created on the ashes of Hispano-Suiza using the INI was limited to the manufacture of trucks and buses. Ricart, company engineer and experienced in competition with Alfa Romeo and Ferrari Enzo partner there, requested permission to manufacture high performance unautomóvil. Thus, the company could afford exportarel model, as an advertising method to publicize their products. It was also thought of a means of funding based on foreign exchange.- Ricart came from competing in Italy, where he developed V12 engines. He decided to create unmotor V8 to equip the Z-102. It was built with aluminum alloys and dosárboles cam per bank. The engine underwent two redesigns to increase its displacement of 2,500 cc to 2,800 cc and 3,200 cc after the first. As a common feature of all, which is remarkable for its time, the exhaust valves are cooled by liquid sodium. 

2,500 ccThe original engine was a 90 ° V8 dry sump lubrication and 4 camshafts in total. It was possible to choose between one, two or four Weber carburettors double body upside down. It was also possible to choose between compression ratios of 7.5 to 1: 8 to 1 and 8.5 to 1. To 1953 in these figures were increased half unit due to the improvement of fuel quality.According to the variant chosen, the power delivered by the engine varies between 160 and 180CV, at an engine speed of 6,300 to 6,500 rpm. The most basic of torque amounts to 18.9 kg • m to 3600 rpm.
 
  2,800 ccWe designed another engine, which kept the stroke of the pistons of 70 mm, but ranging from 75 to 80 mm diameter. With compression ratios of 7.8 to 1 8.2 to 1 and 8.8 to 1, the engine was able to dispense up to 200 hp at 6,300 rpm at its most extreme. The torque rose to 24.8 kg • m. It was fitted in so-called Z-102 B.There was a more powerful version. Wifredo Ricart applied his experience in Italy with superchargers, and Roots compressor coupled to this engine, which provided 0.6 atm of pressure in the cylinders. Thus, the engine gave up 260 hp at 6,800 rpm and a torque of 33 kg • m 4000 translations minute. The power increase was needed larger tires.

 3,200 ccThe largest variant of the engine was mounted on the Z-102 SS. It could only be chosen with or without compressor, and power is 210 and 280 horsepower respectively. Was used to beat several brands. The most notable is that of the flying kilometer, a road test in Belgium in 1953. The Pegasus reached 245 km / h.Gta Spano

-GTA Spano is the name of Spanish supercar built by the Valencian company GTA Motor. The project, carried in secret since 2005, was born in 2008, when it introduced the model under the name of GTA Concept. After CreAcción and presentation of several pre-production prototypes GTA Motor will lead to production in 2012 in a limited edition of 99 units.
 - Since 2008 a large group of engineers worked on the project under the direction of Domingo Ochoa, who has over 15 years of experience in motorsport, a key point for the technical development of the vehicle, which has several patents world (five fully processed according to the last presentation of the company) and make use of as many cars never implemented in Spanish.- In February 2008 it became the official public presentation of the project through a model, in the city of Valencia, specifically in The City of Arts and Sciences. In the same place, in April 2010 presented the first functional unit and a few days later, between days 19-25, the presentation took place in the hall official international Top Marques Montercarlo (Monaco). In August, they began testing the first prototype in the Cheste circuit. It seemed that the first units will begin to be manufactured and delivered to the end of 2010, but production was delayed. However it is planned to build only 99 units from 2012, increasing more if it is the exclusivity of it. Manufacturing is done exclusively on the ground of the Valencian town of Ribarroja Turia, which is GTA Motor Company headquarters and major facilities.
- The GTA Spano is a rear-drive two-seater that uses materials and technology from the aerospace industry. The monocoque chassis is made of carbon fiber, titanium and Kevlar, making it a benchmark in the industry. The body is also made of carbon fiber which is achieved with a weight of only 1350 kilos.- Your engine is a 8300 cc V10, located in central and longitudinal rear position gives an output of 820 hp and 960 Nm of torque in its production. An electronic power control allows the driver may control the availability of it from 450 hp to the 820 maximum.It is known that reaches a top speed around 350 km / h takes less than 2.8 seconds to accelerate from 0 to 100 km / h.- Originally the offer two different gearboxes to be mounted according to customer preferences. Both are six-speed box, a manual and automatic sequential type other paddles on the steering wheel. Good power to weight ratio, is suitably used due to a transmission system which makes contact with the ground via a wheel composed of a set of Pirelli 255/35 and rim 19 inches at the front axle, and somewhat higher, specifically tires 335/30 and rim 20 inches in the rear je. And slowing down and stopping the vehicle handle 6 piston calipers from AP Racing origin, "biting" carbon-ceramic discs 380 mm in diameter using a system with pneumatic assistance and ABS support.

Electric Cars

Hi! I´m going to talk about the electric car that will appear this summer. It´s the Renault Twizy.

- The "Renault Twizy" is one of the cars that will revolutionize the European market this summer. May be purchased from € 5,932 in Renault dealerships. The Twizy at first seems a car fuerista but if you look inside you will see that the opposite is true.

- The Twizy is a two-seater with 2'3 m long, 1.2 m wide and 1.4 m high. The engine of this car has a maximum power of 17cv and has a range of 120 km has a small 13-inch wheels and 4 disc brakes, has a top speed of 80 km / h. It also has a gearbox with gear only to have a great driving comfort.
 

 

 - Being a car so cheap should have some drawbacks and of course it has. By having so small a range can not be made to travel, has a charging time of 3 hours and must be connected to a connector plug that is placed in garages or directly on the street, so it is checked out of mischief ...

- Twizy The prototype was presented at the Frankfurt Motor Show in 2009. Then he showed with vivid colors, green, red, blue, introduced in prototype stage under the name ZE Renault clinching this project as one of the brands that bet on innovation of electric cars for 1 year Renault is working on the car to it on the market and at last he succeeded. This first prototype had two side doors with a vertical opening, but the today sold the doors open as always to the side.

- Renault has signed an agreement with Spain to build the model Twizy in Valladolid until 2015. Although according to the market as it adopts this car.

Drag Race

What is a Drag-race?
-Drag racing is a competition in which specially prepared automobiles or motorcycles compete, two at a time, to be the first to cross a set finish line, from a standing start, in a straight line, over a measured distance, most commonly a ¼-mile (402.3-metre / 1,320 ft) straight track.

                                                                         Dragster Car

The dragstercars have a special tyres and the fuel its nitrometane, because of that it has a total power of 880CV. There are a lot of types of Dragster Cars there are one that is a street but it has a very par-engine.

Talking About Motorbikes

- One thing that I going to show you in this blog is the potential of the motorbikes respect to the cars. One example of that is one motorbike that join 3 elemental things:

1. The reliability
2. That has a good and competitive engine.
3. And that it not have veru much power.

- The motorbike that join this elemental thing usually are the 125cc and 250cc. Ok that`s today I´m going to talk about, how a 125cc motorbike can compete with a 500cc or similar motorbike.This motorbike is the "Aprilia RS125".

 

Aprilia RS125 1997

The Aprilia RS125 was created in 1996 in Italy. It has a 2 stroke engine that runs 124.8cc, it has a Rotax engine that is one of the best 125cc engine of the generation. The first version was the 125r Maxima, then Aprilia continues making them and in 2007 they create the Aprilia RS125 Sport

                                                               Aprilia RS125R Maxima

                                                         Aprilia RS125L 2007 Model

Here you have the Aprilia RS125, this video show you most of the details of the motorbike

The Legend of Ford Gt-40 and the Ford Gt

-There are many diferences between the Ford Gt-40 and the Ford Gt. The Ford Gt-40 was created 47 years ago and it was the fastest car in this decad, it has 6997cc with a V8 engine

-The Ford GT40 race car is a winner of the 24 Hours of Le Mans four times from 1966 to 1969. It was built by Ford Motor Company to compete in endurance races, and so deal with Ferrari who won five consecutive times from 1960 to 1965.

    Top Gear teste the Ford Gt and the Gt-40

There are a lot of diferents types of the Ford Gt-40:

• MK 1

  The Mk I was the original Ford GT40. Early prototypes were powered by 4.2 litre (255 cu.in) alloy V8 engines and production models were powered by 4.7 litre (289 cu.in) engines as used in the Ford Mustang. Five prototype models were built with roadster bodywork, including the Ford X-1^. The Ford X-1 was a roadster built to contest the Fall 1965 North American Pro Series, a forerunner of CanAm, entered by the Bruce McLaren team and driven by Chris Amon. This car wins the 24h of Sebring in1966.

                              This is a picture of the Ford Gt-40 Mk1

  • MK 2

    For Daytona 1967, two Mk II models (chassis 1016 and 1047) Were Fitted with 7.0 liter Mercury engines. Mercury is a Ford Motor Company division, and Mercury's 427 WAS Exactly the Same engine as Ford's with Different logos. A batch of wrongly heat treated input shafts in the transaxles sidelined Virtually every Ford in the race, however, and Ferrari won 1-2-3.

•   MK 3

  The Mk IV WAS built around a reinforced J chassis powered by the Same 7.0 L engine as the Mk II. Excluding the engine, the Mk IV WAS totally Different from other GT40s, using a specific chassis and specific bodywork. As a direct result of the Miles accident, the team installed a NASCAR-style steel-tube roll cage in the Mk. IV, Which made ​​it much safer negated But MOST of the weight saving of the honeycomb-panel construction. Dan Gurney Often complained about the weight of the Mk IV, since the car was 600 pounds (270 kg) heavier than the Ferraris have raced. DURING practice at Le Mans in 1967, in an effort to preserve the highly-stressed brakes, Gurney Developed a strategy (also co-driver ADOPTED by AJ Foyt) of backing off the throttle Completely Several hundred yards approach to the Before The Mulsanne hairpin and Virtually coasting Into the braking area. This technique saved the brakes, RESULTING But The increase in the car's lap times Recorded practice led to speculation DURING the Ford team within The Gurney and Foyt That, in an effort to compromise on chassis settings, HAD hopelessly "dialed out" their car.
